GET READY FOR MOME GRADUATION 2024

Date: 2024.06.02
Though recurring every year, each MOME graduation period is unique, with a number of object and concept designs and artworks. Once again, there will be public diploma defences to take place between 3 and 20 June. The good news is that the MOME Diploma Exhibition showcasing the masterworks will be open longer this year, from 15 to 21 June at various locations across the Campus. Also, students from the first MA programmes to have launched in English language will be graduating this year.

Photography and Interaction Design, the first Master’s programmes offered by MOME entirely in English language, were launched in 2022. The first graduates of these programmes, recruited from the Central Eastern European region and also from Hungary, will receive their degree in 2024 after successfully defending their theses. 

The MOME Graduation event series, with over three hundred students, comprises several important stages, starting from the portrait photo shoot, all the way to the ceremonial presentation of the diplomas. 

Traditionally, a student or group of students is selected, based on entries submitted, to develop a concept for and shoot the portrait photos of graduating students and design the visual identity for the graduation. In 2024 the visual identity has been designed by Graphic Design MA Réka Lantos   while the portrait photos were taken by Photography MA students Daniella Grinberg and Benjámin Melegh. These will appear on various platforms, such as social media, the graduation ceremony, and the online interface showcasing each graduating student. 

As part of the public diploma defences students will present their masterworks, theses, and portfolios to the examination boards. The detailed schedule for each MA programme with the dates, times, and venues, as well as information about the exhibition in a breakdown by programme will be available on a graduation-related subsite. 

Once again, MOME’s graduation ceremony will feature world-renowned creative professionals and artists whose career and oeuvre can serve as a model for the students, providing graduating students with takeaway and inspiration for the future. 

Key dates 

MA diploma defences: 3-14 June 

MA diploma exhibition: 15-21 June 

BA diploma defences: 17-20 June

Several students and staff members at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design recently reached important professional milestones and were warmly welcomed – alongside fellow attendees – at the 2025 Spring Title Award Ceremony by Acting Rector Csaba Kovács and Head of the Doctoral School Ábel Szalontai. This past semester, Bence László Dobos, Viola Fátyol, Henrietta Fiáth, Katalin Glaser, Gergely Hartmann, Flóra Kőszeghy, Piroska Novák, Panni Pais, and Valéria Póczos have earned their doctoral degrees, while Erzsébet Nagy, a long-standing and highly respected member of our textile programme, will receive the honorary title of Master Instructor.

The MOME 2025 graduation visual identity is now complete, offering a visual representation of community-driven future building. At MOME, it’s tradition for the visual identity of the diploma events – from graphic design to the portrait photography of BA and MA graduates – to be designed by students themselves, with the concept chosen through a competition judged by a panel of university staff. The annually revamped visual identity serves as a visual snapshot of its time.

For the first time, the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) is taking part in the Budapest100 event series, which in 2025 will raise awareness about the importance of urban green spaces, gardens, and parks. MOME’s 15,000-square-metre, revitalised campus garden not only serves as a venue but also plays an active role in the festival with its eco-conscious developments and community activities. Budapest100 is an architectural and cultural festival that celebrates communities and the city, bringing neighbours closer together. From 22–25 May 2025, we’ll be focusing on urban green spaces, courtyards, gardens, and green corridors, along with the communities who nurture them.
